I need to be able to change the background color of a page from code. I
found an answer to this question in another forum from Peter Huang that said
that an id="bg" as follows...
<body MS_POSITIONING= "GridLayout " runat="server" id="bg">
then we could do the following in our codebehind file....
Private Sub Page_Load(sende r As Object, e As System.EventArg s)
bg.Attributes.A dd("BgColor", "#ff9933")
End Sub
However, I get the errror that bg is Private.
Is there a solution to this issue where bgcolor, and other attributes of the
document can be changed from codebehind code?

If that's all you want to do, why don't you simply do it,
by setting the <body background-color...> attribute ?
You aren't *really* attemptiong to change the background color
from code. You are just setting an arbitrary background color.
If that's all you want to do, why don't you just set it in the <body...>
Otherwise, use the code for the examples I posted.
Those samples allow users to select any background/foreground colors you want to allow.

Yes I REALLY want to set it at run time - please trust me on this. Not at
design time.
The reason why I don't simply set it in the body is because I want to set it
at run time.
your examples show it working but I can't see your code behind.
Maybe we are not communicating well. I want to find out how to set the
background color at run time from my code behind file.

I see your solution working and I saw the tutorial on this at gotdotnet.
but this does not appear to be compatible with forms as they are used in
vs.net. for instance...
<body MS_POSITIONING= "GridLayout " style="color:<% =GetStyle("Fore Color")%>"
<form id="Form1" method="post" runat="server">
</form>
The GetStyle call as above and as in your code is not tollerated in vs.net.
I am unable to even return to the design view with that code as is.
As I said before, I (simply) want to find out how to set the background
color at run time from my code behind file. It seems there has to be a way
to reference the bgcolor in the Document from my codebehind.

I think you're complicating your life needlessly.
If you don't like that method, use this :
<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup ="True" %>
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" >
<head runat="server">
<title>
Changing a Page's Background Color
</title>
<script runat="server">
void SubmitBtn_Click (object Source, EventArgs e)
{
Body1.Attribute s["bgcolor"] = ColorSelect.Val ue;
}
</script>
</head>
<body id="Body1" runat="server">
<h3>Changing a Page's Background Color</h3>
<form id="Form1" runat="server">
<p></p>
Select a background color for the page: <p></p>
<select id="ColorSelect " runat="server">
<option>White </option>
<option>Wheat </option>
<option>Gainsbo ro</option>
<option>LemonCh iffon</option>
</select>
<input id="Submit1" type="submit" runat="server" value="Apply" onserverclick=" SubmitBtn_Click "/>
</form>
</body>
</html>
---000---
You should be able to insert that code into code-behind,
almost as it is. I wrote it inline, because I prefer inline coding.
Notice that all I'm doing is adding an id attribute (body1) to the body,
and then changing the bgcolor of that HtmlGenericCont rol.
All you'd need to do is submit the form programmaticall y,
with whatever value you are going to give to "Body1.Attribut es["bgcolor"]
You can see the above code working at : http://asp.net.do/WebSite2/CustomizeDemo.aspx

Hi Gary,
I think Juan's suggestion is good. Also, if you do need to programmaticall y
set the bgcolor for page body in codebehind, we need to mark the body as
"runat=serv er" and assign an ID, also in codebehind, we need to explicitly
declare a protected control member fields to associate that tag. For
example:
<body id="bd" runat="server" >
=============== ====
public class BgColorPage : System.Web.UI.P age
{
protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Text Box txtColor;
protected System.Web.UI.W ebControls.Butt on btnSubmit;
protected HtmlGenericCont rol bd;
=============== ============
private void btnSubmit_Click (object sender, System.EventArg s e)
{
System.Drawing. Color bgcolor =
System.Drawing. ColorTranslator .FromHtml(txtCo lor.Text);
bd.Style["BACKGROUND-COLOR"] =
System.Drawing. ColorTranslator .ToHtml(bgcolor );
}
=============== =======
Hope this helps.

that was the answer! It was the declaration of bd as an htmlgeneric control
that was missing.

I have an interesting complication related to putting a runat="server"
inside my body tag.
On one of my pages I was calling a Javascript function i.e. <body
onload="setcurs or".... where I am calling a javascript function. But since
the body is now a server control the page gets an error saying setcursor is
not a part of webform1.aspx.
Do you know of way to call the javascript function now that it has the
runat server?
